By tradition in the Catholic Church, each month is dedicated to a certain devotion. In May, it is the Blessed Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. May Crowning and other special May events, such as public recitation of the rosary, take place during this time.
On Friday, May 1, seniors wore their gowns for the first time to take part in the May Crowning ceremony at noon in St. Peter’s Parish church. This year’s ceremony marks the 83nd anniversary of the May Crowning at St. Peter’s.
